Rift-to-Ridge: Mid-Atlantic Ridge Segments Imprinted During Rifting

by Emilie Hooft 19 October 202317 October 2023

A new seismic study shows that magmatism along the eastern North American rift margin was segmented, and that rift discontinuities influence formation of fracture zones along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
